see, when the president ramps up the war on terror or decides to move into another area or use the cia to engage people, whether to arrest them or to kill them, he's required to tell the senate and house intelligence committees ahead of time and get their consent. he apparently didn't do that, and so they're burned by this. >> shannon: yeah, not the first time on an important issue that that's happened. what about the fact that we have seen other memos unrelated to this out there, but the way they classify terrorism they also look at domestic terror issues, and there are those -- there have been memos out there, you've seen them, i've seen them, that have suggested that people that have extreme religious views, people who are pro life, some of those people could be considered in some ways domestic terrorists. they're on watch lists or should be monitored by the government. how far can this be taken. >> earlier in this administration, janet napolitano, no relation, the secretary of homeland security, issued a very startling memorandum. i remember discussing it with bill o'reilly in a wh
